The Standard reports:

Children’s minister Sarah Teather today paid tribute to a Liberal Democrat party volunteer who died after he was hit by a lorry near his home.

Library assistant Ismaeel Ebrahimsa, 29, was walking in Cricklewood when he was hit by the vehicle at lunchtime on July 22.

He had been active in local politics for years and helped Ms Teather fight two general election campaigns, most recently for Brent Central in May.

Sarah Teather said,

Ismaeel was a lovely young man who worked hard for his community and really cared about the area where he lived. He was very interested in politics and will be much missed by many people in Brent. My thoughts go out to his family.
